Training, Colleges and Universities Minister Ross Romano says the government wants to make education affordable for all students.

An Ontario Divisional Court ruling Thursday struck down a directive making some post-secondary student fees optional.

The Canadian Federation of Students and the York Federation of Students filed an application for a judicial review. The decision in favour of both federations was issued by the Divisonal Court on Thursday.

The suspended "Trick or Eat" program usually brings in anywhere from 4,000-40,000 pounds of food every year, the food banks says.

Students will now be able to choose whether or not to pay for student services at Queen's University, including student-run media organizations.

"This puts food banks in a precarious situation because they don't know how much food they can afford to buy for students or how many staff they can hire."

In January, Training, Colleges and Universities Minister Merrilee Fullerton announced what the government calls a "student choice initiative," a new fee model which allows students to choose what they want to pay for and how that money will be allocated.
